CPUs:
>G4560 - budget builds (<$500) unless G4600/G4620/i3-7100 is heavily discounted
>R5 1500x - generally all you need for 60fps with power to spare. No i5
>R5 1600 - best value for higher fps gaming & mixed usage; 1600x if you too lazy to OC
>i7-7700k - bad value but good for higher FPS; may have heat issues
>R7/Xeon/Threadripper/i9 - compute/Multitask/mixed use
Graphics:
>G4560 iGPU is fine for desktop stuff and very light game
>1050Ti for low budget. Drop settings if not Freesync/Gsync on newer games; RX560 if discounted <$90
>RX570 4GB - 1080p@60+hz, running most maxed; older games at 144+hz
>RX580 8GB - 1440p@60+hz, inject SMAA & drop settings
>1060 - Generally outperformed by the RX 580 and GSync costs more; consider if AMD is not an option (ie CUDA/miners buying all RX570s)
>1070 - if on heavy sale-ish
>1080 - 1080p@100-144+hz maxed; 1440p at lower hz.
>1080Ti - 1440p@90-144+hz; 4k@60hz in SOME games, more at lower settings

>NVMe aren't for faster OS boot. They're primarily for productivity/scratch disk/VMs

>mATX board + case is often cheaper
>1 SR DIMM is slower than 2 DIMMs
Which ssd should i get? I think the galax one because of the price and that it has 3d nand

Hdd 1 installed ubuntu
Hdd 2 can't install windows, windows wants to be only OS
If i unplug hdd 1 's cable and install windows to hdd 2 will it dual boot when i plug hdd 1's cable?
Looks like you don't understand fundamental parts of the technology you are trying to use.
How did you make it to /g/, anon?
>>60774804
For future reference, just install windows first

I don't want them on some hdd
Games for windows

They are different things
never used linux before
figured i would try it
downloaded gentoo
spent about 4-5 hours trying to follow the instructions
gave up after typing commands into some parting program for about an hour or 2
turns out it erased all my drives and i have nothing to go back to
what should i do now? posting from my phone atm, should i go back and finish what i started? can i really let it get away with beating me like this?

What's the point in this for a desktop workstaion? All heavy jobs anyway should be computed on a dedicated server rather then locally on a workstation.
Only gaymers use such type of hardware but gaymers are retarded by definition.

This nig is actually recommending me a 4c/4t cpu in the current year when R5's are available.

Should I get a Skylake i5 instead of an R7?
How can this company still be in business? Who pays for their shit? If they were to disappear tomorrow, I would literally not notice it.

They have endless pajeets on their payroll and have to support shit like Edge and Bing.

Ahh fuck I got an actual job doing actual programming but desu the height of my accomplishments is creating a little snake copy. I am spooked. If I get fired right away can I just not put that on my resume? Fucck

Those sweet minimum FPS's
I'm a brainlet, but I want to get a CS degree. Programming I enjoy, but I am awful at math. I want to get to at least a Calc 1 level in the next few weeks. I've been working through Khan Academy but there's such a massive amount of information, hundreds of lessons. As I work through, I get the strong vibe that some of it isn't going to be immediately necessary. For example, under Algebra II, immediately after operations between functions and composition of functions, there's a whole section on shifting/transforming/stretching graphs of functions. Cool and all, but I feel like maybe i'm wasting my limited time with it. I don't want to spend a bunch of time learning something i'll probably never use again, i'll probably forget it in a matter of weeks. What are the bare minimum topics I need to master?

College level algebra and maybe some matrix shit is literally all you will ever need
>>60773472
>>60773500
This. I did first year calculus at university (although I wasn't required to), and it wasn't useful at all.
Linear algebra was very useful, though.
cs ~= programming
cs ~= software engineering
sounds like you don't really want a cs degree, just the bragging rights. Learn node and jump on the sweet deepMachineDildoingCRUD train and you will be fine
second, learning is a process, you can't compress it into a week, there are no cheat codes. Calc 1 is usually a semester. You will never use it directly btw, it gives you e.g. a foundation to build mental models describing your problem space
